What players say
Players call Half-Life 2 a landmark in FPS storytelling that still holds up decades later. The gravity gun and physics-based puzzles remain satisfying, though some find the vehicle sections and NPC body blocking frustrating. There is broad agreement that the game's ending on a cliffhanger is unresolved.
